regarding the mentalist, this is Bruno's episode so expect Jane to cross lines, to manipulate, to be the absolute definition of craziness.. Lisbon was deep in grief that she needed to feel something again and I def. agree with you about the wrongness of the method he used but at the end, it was obvious that she wasn't bothered about it. On the contrary, she smiled to him a happy/genuine smile eventhough her saying "it was all 'coz of the punch" was a total mask for inner satisfaction.. On Jane's part, I find that stunt VERY in character for Jane 'coz no matter how sweet he looked he's still a jerk (the same way House is ... or was idk) so, I won't say he doesn't care about Lisbon.. 'coz I know he does but he's so reckless and doesn't have any regard for the others' feelings and it happened that he made use of the situation to heal her (was about to say "open her eyes" and it made my stomach ache as those were Rebecca's words *swallows a lump*) and as he said in E15 "all is well what ends well" so inside his conscious (if he has one) he's done nothing wrong!

on a side note, this episode also made me question his mental stability .. 'coz he acted like a crazy person would act while Lisbon was talking to the team on the phone and he kept talking while she didn't even listened. This also brings back Kristina's "you're more than a little unstable". I think he manip. Sophie to let him out before he got fully recovered! which makes me wanna see a mental relapse sometime in the upcoming season(s)..

give it another chance as we're nearing the finale so u can decided to follow or not.. next Thurs. is the new boss arriving .. looks promising ;)

about House, they don't want him to end with someone 'coz they want more seasons and now that he changed, they're complicating his social/love life so I guess this is how they're getting more stories about them.. and now with this "biological father" thing it's getting too exciting for me.. my POV is, Huddy isn't essential to this series.. it's just something to draw the attention to show with the "sexual tension" and all.. every show needs that factor! but speaking about her rejecting him was good thing for me (I'd do the same if I was her) she is seeing a possibility for a settlement and normalcy and she can't risk that for a person that could still break her heart at any time.. that's what I think at least!

House and Jane are alike in this relationship thing.. it's hard to imagine each with whom we wanted them to be with 'coz they're all messed up to be in a relationship!

gotta looooooooove your Emma Watson picspam .. she's gorgeous though I've never watched HP tbh! but I like the girl <3
